In one or more embodiments, a task minder comprises a personal electronic device configured to prompt its user for input at timed intervals. The task minder, which may be a wearable device, allows its user to input a “positive” response indicating that the user is on task, or a “negative” response indicating that the user is off task. Response data collected by the task minder over a number of response intervals indicates the user's success in focusing on assigned tasks, and the repeated prompting for response inputs positively modifies the user's behavior by making him or her more conscious of time and providing positive behavior reinforcement through tracking on-task and off-task performance. The system may further include computer software to collect and analyze task performance data from task minders, and may include a master unit to monitor/control task minders, which may be an appropriately configured PC or a standalone unit.
